Stability is the order of the day in our situation. No point in changing captain mid -season. Let Hughes bring his own man in pre-season, and then next season Wesley Sneijder can be our new captain.
Ferdy for me...leading by example and from the back. Seems to be quite a commanding figure and in light of recent events, would be the perfect move. Saying that, I am not uncomfortable with Barton remaining as Captain either. My other shout would be Helgy, but cant seem him getting the same game time now.
I agree with this, and therefore I'd leave it with Barton this season. As others have said it doesn't mean much more than an armband anyway, and taking it off Barton now when we are in the relegation fight might cause more aggro than we can afford.
I find mightself caught in two minds, either Young or Ferdinand. However, changing mid season isn't a good idea. If these two players, Shaun Derry and Clint were younger and likely to be at loftus Rd next year( which there not) then one of these would have had my vote.
Joey will captain unless injured or suspended (most likely) then i would opt for Ferdinand, i like his attitude.
Being that he's for some the new Vierra, Diakite has to be considered. Question is, is he the new Vierra?
No way will he be considered as hes still a loan at the moment and you dont put a loan player as captain.
This thread is a little unnecessary. JB will stay captain until at least the end of the season. Our future captain may not even be at the club yet. It will be interesting to see if MH will change things in the summer at all. I suspect that JB is not his kind of captain. He does not do his talking on the pitch.
ALAS JB until the end of the season until he leaves to go and play for Hull or better still Rangers or Celtic he would be well suited there. In the summer who's knows but as said before Diakite or Onunha
Diakate? Onuoha? Is this Diakate mali's captain or was he nancys captain? Why are you thinkin he would be captain worthy?
My god (any god) at last someone has said the right thing!! Well done Rollercoaster, well said! Could not agree more. I also note that you have Rodney's and Stan the man shirt as your little thing? Well done again, must have seen the OLD days as I !!!!
